CVE-2024-51721

A code injection vulnerability in the SecuSUITE Server Web Administration Portal of SecuSUITE versions 5.0.420 and earlier could allow an attacker to potentially inject script commands or other executable content into the server that would run with root privilege.

Weakness

The product attempts to access a file based on the filename, but it does not properly prevent that filename from identifying a link or shortcut that resolves to an unintended resource.

Potential Mitigations

• Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
• Denying access to a file can prevent an attacker from replacing that file with a link to a sensitive file. Ensure good compartmentalization in the system to provide protected areas that can be trusted.
